Moderators are responsible for:
| » | planning the format of the panel and communicating this format to speakers - includes developing sample questions or outlining presentation topics |
| » | coordinating presentation content from speakers - includes examining any speaker Powerpoint presentations to ensure they are not too heavily ‘promotional’ or are sales or marketing oriented |
| » | providing speakers with any necessary material to be used in the session as part of the planning process |
| » | coordinating and managing speakers on the day of the event (most likely scheduling a pre-event meeting time at the facility) |
Speakers are responsible for:
| » | coordinating their presentations with moderators |
| » | providing presentation slides/reference materials for online listing |
| » | informing moderators of any substitutions or cancellations |
|
| The amount of time each speaker will have will depend on the number of speakers.
Tips for Creating Effective Presentation Slides/Media
1. This is not the place to create an advertisement for your organization or product. Rather, your presentation is a chance to inform and educate attendees on key industry challenges, issues and solutions. You may be asked to resubmit your slides.
2. Before you create your visuals, ask yourself:
- What information will my audience want to take away from my presentation?
- What can I do so the visual information that I’m providing can motivate attendees to action?
3. Use the simplest terms and relationships
4. Use a consistent format and an easy-to-read font for your slides
5. Convey one point or comparison per visual
6. Carefully proofread your transcript, charts, graphics; you are the best judge of technical accuracy
7. Show only highlights on each slide; YOU are there to provide additional information
8. Provide your slides in the same order as your talk
9. Keep a copy of all your slides and email us your final version or bring back up on USB/Jump/Flash drive
10. Review presentation tips
